Reflecting Telescopes:
Reflecting Telescopes are used to view sky objects such as planets, the moon, star clusters, galaxies, nebulae, and multiple star systems.
Components:
Hollow Tube – Provides the structure of the telescope
Glass Lens – Allows source light into the tube
Parabolic Concave Mirror – Reflects source light to focal point
Secondary Flat Mirror – Reflects light at focal point to eyepiece
Eyepiece – Light and image is reflected here
Focuser – Adjusts the focus of the image at eyepiece
